Cedar City portrait and wedding photographer.

Welcome to my blog!

I love photography! Pretty cliché I know. There is just so much to learn and explore. So many things to try. But the main reason I love photography is this "Photography is about savoring life at 1/100th of a second." - Marc Riboud

I am a portrait and wedding photographer in Cedar City Utah. I also love landscape photography, but every great landscape I encounter, I can't help but think how much better the shot would be if I stuck a person in it.

October Portraits

October may just be my favorite month. I love fall, the changing colors, the cool weather, it is fantastic. I love earth tones too, so the fall leaves just cry out to be photographed. I couldn’t resist all those leaves on the ground any longer, so I decided to take my boys out for a photoshoot. I take pictures of my boys all the time. So much that it has become rather difficult to get them to pose for me anymore because they are sick of it. However, it had been a while since I did more than a quick photoshoot at home of them, so this was long overdue. We set out with one goal, find a bunch of leaves on the ground. We found the perfect spot.

Isn’t he the cutest one year old ever? I think so, I am biased of course because he is mine.

Our oldest is the hardest to photograph. He doesn’t have much patience for it anymore, but I’ll take what I can get.

And then suddenly the photoshoot turned into this, throwing leaves. I loved it, got some really cool shots of those leaves.

And of course he had way more fun after the leaf throwing started.

And finally one of my favorite shots from the whole thing. I absolutely love that stream of leaves and they are lit so nicely, just pure awesomeness.

I think I will order some large prints of a few of these to go in my office.
